About

In 2003, our founders recognized a critical need for high-fidelity simulation capabilities that could support NASA's complex human spaceflight operations. Operating from Houston near NASA's Johnson Space Center, METECS has evolved from providing core simulation software to becoming a comprehensive engineering solutions provider. The company specializes in advanced technologies including robotics, embedded systems, and immersive graphics that support critical programs like Gateway, Orion, and the International Space Station.

Today, METECS is an award-winning engineering and creative services company that combines technical precision with creative problem-solving to tackle challenges ranging from spacecraft simulation to virtual reality training systems. Their efficient, highly qualified team develops custom solutions in multibody dynamics, 3D graphics, contact dynamics, and orchestration. With deep expertise spanning Apollo, Space Shuttle, International Space Station, and Constellation programs, individual team members have contributed to the inception and development of many tools and capabilities currently used at NASA's Software Robotics and Simulation division. Now over two decades into their journey, METECS continues to push boundaries in simulation technology while maintaining the agility and innovation of a specialized engineering team that delivers both engineering excellence and creative services.
